    Thank you! And crit on my pics?
    A while ago I posted about a contest that I needed votes in, and you guys were just brilliant.

    The thread got deleted because it was breaking the rules, but I felt I definitely needed to thank you all.

    When voting closed I was in the lead with 2016, and the guy below was at 1944. But in the next few hours, the slimy cheater hacked his votes up to about 4000. I was not sure if they picked up on this, so I sent the site a friendly email. They must have found a way to find illegitimate votes, because on the scoreboards I saw his votes sink again to 1100. It took them 2 weeks to verify the winner because of all the funny business. I got an email from Amazon as I arrived back in the country. It felt brilliant!

    I have to thank you guys mainly, and as always I have trouble communicating, so it's hard to tell you how much I appreciate this.

    If you're curious about what I'm gonna do with the money, it's definitely going toward a new DSLR. They sent amazon.com vouchers, which can't easily be redeemed at amazon.co.uk, but we'll probably sell them to an american friend for ~£350. I have my eyes on the Pentax K-5, the K-30 and the Nikon D5100.

    I'm worried that this thread will break the rules again, the Mods were very nice in not punishing me, but I don't want to be a repeat offender. So I guess I should post something creative?

    Well I just got back from Berlin, and I did take a lot of photos (and some holiday snaps) there. I would honestly love your constructive crit, because I'm always looking for ways to improve. Below I'll embed the best, excluding holiday snaps.

    That's an exhibition by Anthony McCall called "5 Minutes of Pure Sculpture", it's in Hamburger Bahnhof, which is an art gallery, but used to be a train station. Thanks, by the way!

    Stitching panoramas takes ages!

    That fourth photo has been my most successful on 500px, it just about scraped into the "popular photos" list before falling down again.

    This panorama didn't turn out brilliantly, lotsa stitching errors at the bottom.

    Thanks

    Quick question: which is best, #5 or #6? I'm thinking of entering them into a competition, topic is "motion".

    Here's a link to the competition in case you want to enter yourselves...
